Fourth Class- Ms Hynes

Green Schools Committee

We recently held an election in our class to elect new representatives to our Green Schools Committee. It was fantastic to see the effort that all of the candidates went to by creating election posters, slogans and speeches for the big day. It was a very close contest. The successful candidates were Faye Byrne and Joel Dolan Ganly. The whole class wishes them the very best of luck in their new venture and we look forward to hopefully being awarded our fourth green flag for Transport. We would also like to thank Oisin Byrne and Cara Small for all their hard work on the previous committee.

Yellow Flag Committee

Our class also recently took part in an election to elect new members to our Yellow Flag Committee. last year our school received the yellow flag in recognition of all the work that the school community does to ensure our school is an inclusive place where people from all nationalities, Religions and beliefs feel welcome and are celebrated. Again, the work completed by the children was excellent. Our eventual winners were Matilde Marques Pena and Anthony Lyons Mayland. Congratulations and the best of luck!

A Magician Comes to Visit

We were lucky enough to receive a visit from a fantastic man named Marvin the Magician and his puppet Billy who educated us on the importance of recycling. We really enjoyed the experience and were amazed by some of the tricks he did for us. We received a lot of new information about reducing, reusing and recycling and we will be sure to use this new knowledge in our school and at home. Thanks to Ms Chessar for organizing the visit for us!
